The Many Uses Of The Gooseneck Pedestal

By Eric Thompson


In this day and age, convenience is on a premium. Pretty much everything worth developing has been done so as to be smooth sailing and streamlined. One such innovation it wouldnt do to miss is the gooseneck pedestal.

This gizmo is used in uncounted applications. Among those are commercial door security, drive up communication, vehicular gates in parking ramps and lots, truck stops, and business and delivery entrances. The ubiquity of this contraption cannot be denied indeed.

The pedestal may mount one of many products. There are speaker phones, color video cameras, entry or panel phones, door strike relays, door boxes, and some such. Its essentially designed to mount gizmos such as wireless intercom systems, digital keypads, and proximity card readers, usually for gate automation systems.

For instance, this gooseneck stand is very much conducive to mounting products for purposes of drive up communication. Thats why the merchandise is available in various heights, from standard cars to semi trucks. Thats to ensure that the pedestal reaches up to whatever height the drivers seat is situated at.

The kits also come equipped and complete with box or gasket, plus the panels, screws, bolts, nuts, and washers. For strength, reliability, and durability, they are powder coated with a high gauge steel design. Its worth noting that those who have model numbers which end in SS are made of stainless steel.

This nifty stand has got a base of sorts where you stud bolts on all four corners, barring it to concrete. That ensures its solidness and stability. Its also made with heavy duty steel for ensured resistance and durability. Since they are usually placed outdoors, that will no doubt come in handy.

The height of the pedestal range from anywhere between thirty six to eight four. For those who have to operate in or near bodies of water, they neednt worry because there are marine grade steel pedestals which are powder painted with a fine texture. Together with the back boxes, it is also designed to be weather resistant, even when its mounted to a pedestal.

The steels surface has also been sandblasted so that jagged parts, paint applications, and other contaminates are removed. It is powder coated by outdoor polyester, imbued with UV protection. Suffice it to say that it is indeed very much suited to placement in the outdoor world. Moreover, on to the starring part. The face plate of the pedestal is actually patterned after that of a universal hole mount template. Therefore, its pretty much assured that any intercom device or card readers are sure to fit inside it or in it. The steel may also be reinforced with Marine grade if the user or operation is anywhere near the ocean. The effect of water, especially that of seawater, on the pedestal will therefore be wholly done away with.

Anyhow, the importance of the pedestal cant really be denied. It has a whole range of useful applications. Moreover, its variability caters to quite a lot of options and therefore more areas in which it can successfully serve.
